The place was amazing! Perfect location for hiking, very beautiful nature. The cottage has everything one might need, even spices and oil; it is also very clean! Really loved it.

Location, beautiful cottage, underfloor heating 😂
Fantastic setting: all the facilities we could want in a very comfortable, cosy cottage. Family all loved the games and books on the area. Exceptional scenery; shame we did not stay longer.

The cottage was quaint, authentic, and comfortable. You could not beat the location! It was absolutely beautiful. We didn’t want to leave.
Location superb. Cottage superb. Arrangements superb. We will definitely look to book here again (and for longer) if we return to walk the mountains, or just to come and relax in the most idyllic setting.
Nothing. Need to keep the gate shut to keep the sheep out though 😅
The house is wonderful, nicely arranged, and our family (5) felt really comfortable there. We went on a trip to the Ring of Kerry early in the morning, when there was no one on the road. I recommend staying here, but of course it’s essential to have a car. The valley is very beautiful.
Amazing location and beautifully restored inside.
A BBQ would elevate the outdoor space here
Very charming and cozy. Comfortable beds, heated floors, hot shower. Location is amazing. Stunning
For we four adults it was perfect. We liked everything about it.
Everything about this cottage we loved. It was so beautiful, the decor was so nice, right next to the mountains, it was peaceful and stunning. The cottage was beautifully decorated. It was cosy and it was well equipped with everything. When we put the fire on, it was so magical. Definitely coming back here again.
Nothing, it was that amazing.
Beautiful property in the middle of the gap of dunloe steeped in Irish history.

Wow. This place was incredible! I can't say enough about how lovely, cozy, and comfortable this stay was. The stone cottage was so charming and beautifully renovated. It was more spacious than I imagined and our group of 3 felt right at home. The cottage was well stocked with everything from books to fire making supplies. We were surrounded by mountains, waterfalls, rivers, lakes, and sheep! A truly unique and magical place to stay. The owners provided excellent, detailed information for arrival, were very responsive, and the listing was very accurate. I wish I could have stayed much longer!!!! It's a bit remote (as advertised) so don't plan to pop out the door and walk to shops or cafes (you need a car), this is a place to go when you want to feel in touch with the natural world, find a bit of peace and slow down. Late November was cool and quiet.
I loved everything about this little gem in the heart of Kerry ✨️ The cottage was immaculately clean, the vibes were immaculate, the warmth was very surprising considering the cottage dates back to thr 1800's!! It was a wonderful experience foe us both. A total switch off with the ancient Kerry landscape all around you, cascading waters & sheep! Do yourself a favour & book this gorgeous gem 💎 We would have loved a second night and we will return God willing in 2025 💖 Thank you Norma x
The cottage was cute and perfect for relaxing before the next adventure. We were able to cook a nice dinner and relax in front of a fire. The beds were comfortable and we were able to walk around and see beautiful sights! The sheep were fun to watch as well!
There was nothing we didn't like. The place was perfect! Our favorite place to stay! Wish we had more time to enjoy it!
